There's a national trend of a return to brick and mortar stores. California isn't part of it.

Did California ever leave? It's crawling with malls.

This is very obviously on purpose.

Well duh.

"RFK just as 8 out of 10 Americans, prefers to get medical advice from Doctors"

Fauci is a doctor.

RFK Jr. is using the CDC to send people to camps.

Hand washing was probably the most effective recommendation the CDC made.

Social distancing is 100% effective at stopping the spread of COVID.

It also prevents teen pregnancy.

So naturally Republicans opposed it.

"In 2016 they were allowed to wear uniforms of the opposite gender, I believe, if they transitioned."

Yeah.
About that.
You weren't allowed to wear any uniform at all, when you served.
Yet, somehow, you did.

You're oblivious apparently.
The military has always had trans serving.
Anyone who had to answer questions had to lie about it.

Why would it matter if a soldier is gay or not?
Why would it matter if a soldier is trans or not?

If you have different answers for those questions, it probably means you're a hypocrite and a bigot.

You think trans people can be corrected. That they are wrong about who they are.

Why can't gay people be corrected. Why aren't gay people wrong about who they are?

Just answer the question.

"Transgenders in the military is complicated."

You're oblivious apparently.
The military has always had trans serving.
Anyone who had to answer questions had to lie about it.

Your own words, BillJohnson.

If Zed seeks help please get him to give you a referral from his shrink, raetard.

You gonna point out where I'm wrong or just keep ------------?

While Project 2025 contains many elements I agree with...
In fact I would support a full blown Gay Equality Act.

Jews For Hitler level of political awareness.

"deportations, many of which have proceeded without court proceedings"

Republicans support that and want more extrajudicial deportations.

And not just illegal immigrants.

BillJohnson,

One thing Trump is trying to do is kick the transgenders out of the military.

What's your empathy and understanding have to say about that.

"Even today there are people who choose to keep it private and that is their business, not yours."

But that's not what you did.

You lied about it.

"The military has always had gays serving."

This isn't about the military.

This is about you.

"You're showing a total lack of empathy and understanding."

How much empathy and understanding should I have for people who lie about who they are?

How much empathy and understanding do you have for trans people who want to use the bathroom that matches their gender?

I really liked this part of the statement!

The result? Higher taxes, higher fees, higher wages that many businesses simply cannot sustain, and endless regulations that strangle growth.

Listen, if Bed Bath and Beyond actually wanted to open a store in California, their CEO would call Gavin Newsom's office and talk about his concerns and what can be done about them.

Read the actual press release. There are zero specifics about what's so bad about California. The verifiable reasons one might choose to avoid California when opening a business, like demonstrably high cost of real estate and high cost of energy, aren't even called out.

Why is this heinous crime only attached to a one year prison term?

Hopefully a Republican who supports Trump can explain why.

"They're, allegedly, opening 300 stores."

They should have gone into the concentration camp business. That's an actual growth economy. Bed Bath and Beyond failed for reasons that haven't changed.

"He's been the most effective governor in the country"

Care to state how you measure a governor's effectiveness?
No, of course not. There are no criteria.

LMAO
The opinion of a raving lunatic now passes for news....

Pretty obvious you can't even begin to disagree that RFK Jr.'s policies are killing people.
Why not take a victory lap? You've earned it. You're getting what you wanted.
RFK Jr. is hurting the people who need to be hurt.

I am me and I've always been me and no one else is me.
I'm me.

Were you being you when you lied to the Federal Government about who you are?
Or have you wised up, as you've gotten older?

A cis teen can get puberty blockers or receive breast reduction surgery.
A trans teen cannot get puberty blockers or receive breast reduction surgery.
You can lie and obfuscate all you want.
But that is a simple fact.

In the Abrahamic religions,
Women are made in a man's image.
Not in their own image.

Most Westerners can't see it because they're born into it and take it for granted.
Muslims have no problem seeing it.
Westerners have no problem seeing it in Muslims.

But these same Westerners can't see it in the Stepford Wives cosmetic surgery that MAGA women have been doing, e.g. Kristi Noem.
They can't see it in the Blonde Bubble Head Barbie look that is a requirement to be a woman talking head on Fox News.

"That said, before he won the election, Trump had outlined a policy to devalue the dollar in the hopes that it would make US goods and services more attractive to foreign customers."

Unless he was planning to devalue the dollar more than the value add of the tariffs, that was never going to work.

"You could also blame him for the devaluation of the dollar, but that's really more due to a loss of global confidence in the USD than a specific policy that was designed to devalue the dollar."

Those are the same thing.
You just refuse to see the forest for the trees, like when you refuse to see the two words "National Socialist" because you can only see the one word "Socialist."

The GOP is a Death To Children Cult.

"the new CEO of Bed Bath & Beyond that it would not open or operate any stores in California due to anxieties over our state's business climate."

Bed Bath and Beyond declared bankruptcy and closed all their stores.

Overstock.com bought the name and operates the brand purely as an e-commerce retailer.

There ain't no store opening anywhere, in California or anywhere else.
